Sooo I finally finished part 6 and I want to write out my thoughts. This might end up getting long.
Alright so what I liked: Jolyne!!! Jolyne was an amazing jojo. My 2nd fave jojo, she was badass, had a great personality, and I just really enjoyed reading about her. Hermes and Foo Fighters were also great, and I really really liked them as well. Weather Report was kinda meh for most of it, but he did get very interesting near the end, and I thought his power was cool! Pucci was a fantastic villain. Definitely in my top 3. His backstory, his motivations, his actions, his stand powers. Everything about him was very interesting and entertaining to read about, and I think Araki did really well with writing him. I felt like the ending, like from the start of heavy weather until the end of the part, was very good. It was intense and had great emotions and stand fighting. It made me very sad even though I knew that ending was gonna happen lol.
What I didn't like: Overall I'd say the plot wasn't the best. I found the plot structure really weird. That doesn't effect my overall enjoyment, because I'm much more about characters than plot, but I still think the plot could've been much better. Like the motivations for Jolyne and other characters was well executed, and Pucci's actions were well done, but the plot structure overall was pretty disjointed. Annasui was lame and I found myself annoyed whenever he had any prominent moments. Like I wish he had a completely different personality, he's one of the first main characters who's in the protagonist group that I actually really dislike. Even in other parts if I didn't care too much about a main character I didn't dislike them. Emporio was just kind of there. Like I didn't care about him, and when it was just him alive at the end I found myself rooting for Pucci because I actually cared about Pucci. And I found until it got to the heavy weather fight the main cast wasn't really a group in the way I wanted them to be. Also I wish Jolyne would've been the one to finish off Pucci.
I didn't care much at all for Jotaro in part 3, but in part 4 I found myself liking him a lot more. He's fantastic in part 4. And in part 6 I really liked him as well, to the point where I got happy when he showed up at the end and really sad when he died. I almost kind of wanted him to have more of a role in this part, at least more than Annasui or Emporio.
Despite all that part 6 is probably my 3rd or 4th favourite part. This post might seem more negative than positive but I did enjoy my time reading Stone Ocean, and it's one of my fave parts. I'm looking forward to the anime now!!
